The brush is preferably, although knot necessarily, secured to the stopper of the bottle to be removed therefrom. As shown, the upper end of the handle 10 is screw threaded as at 12 to fity a threaded of a knob or handle 7 shoulder 8 which fits and renders it dii-heult to remove the stopper, and to detach the brush. This accumulation on the neckof the bottle is caused by wiping the brush thereon to remove the surplus material when the brush is used. Itis to overcome the defects referred to and toprovide a bottle in which the brush will not `adhere to the neck and to provide'a convenientprojection upon which Vto removeV the surplus material from the brush in `using the same, that my invention is designe e objects and advantages hereinbefore socket in the stopper, said socket being located at one side of the center of the stopper in order that the brush may be rotated around the stem 2 of the bottle in securing and removing thestopper.
